1. How do I access the back / forward button history sub-menus since the dropmarker is hidden?
- Right clicking or holding down the left mouse button on the back / forward buttons will make the history sub-menus appear.
- No. A changelog would only slow down my development of Foxdie.
- Check out this blog post: What is the difference between the Blue and Graphite versions of Foxdie?
- Download the Lucida Grande font, turn on ClearType to make the font clearer, and install Gdi++ to make the font smooth.
- Firefox is not able to change that, but a 3rd party Windows program like Visual Style or WindowBlinds can. You can always find more at deviantART. For instance, here is a link showing you how to get some AMAZING stuff. Linux users can use Mac4Lin on Gnome. It really looks like a real Mac (Thanks Cicero!). Also, Check out this blog post: How to get Red, Yellow and Green traffic lights?
By the way, I will make a unified title bar with traffic lights built-in in the future - Check out this blog post: How Do I Uninstall Foxdie?
2. Do you have any changelog?
3. What is the difference between the Blue and Graphite versions of Foxdie?
4. How can I make my fonts clear and smooth like yours?

Hi,
how come that you have version 1.3.2 of CuteBird (Graphite) here while I can not update or download this new version on mozilla.com where only 1.3.1 is available???

It’s better to leave Windows XP and just upgrade your laptop. It’s much better. Besides, Windows XP is way better then Windows Me. Windows Me is obsolete and many programs that can run with XP, can’t run with Me.

Hello!
I’m just wondering if there’s any way you can allow users to use Personas together with Foxdie? Because I absolutely love how neat and organised Foxdie is but I also like the idea of changing the look of the browser using Personas. Any chance at all? I’ve tried using both together but only the bottom bar and the tabs bar change according to the skin I chose from Personas.
Much thanks

Hi
Personas assumes that the default theme is used and hack it, so when you change to a 3rd-party theme, problems come out. This is Personas’ issue, and it need to change the way it works in future.
See more discussions herePersonas will be merged in Namoroka (Firefox 3.6)
You will have it back in next version soon, I’m adding Glass supports right now

Tools–>Add-ons–>Extensions–>Foxdie for Firefox–>uninstall
(Quote)
I was using firefox 3.0.13 in windows and I installed one of your themes ( the blue and the graphite). When I restarted I had no toolbars at all and the status bar at the bottom of the screen was gone too! The ONLY thing I could see was the tab bar. Is this how it should look? If so, how do I control anything? The only thing I could do is switch between tabs! Nothing I did reveled any of the toolbars or any other type of controlling menu.
The only way I reestablished the bars (File toolbar, navigation bar, bookmark bar, etc.) was to use Google (thankfully I had that as my home page) to get to Firefox and download and install Firefox 3.5! (I noticed your theme didn’t work with 3.5.) Installation was a problem to because I could not see the SAVE button or the INSTALL buttons on the popups but I hit ENTER assuming the option was highlighted and it worked. Once 3.5 installed I could see all the toolbars again and I could write this e-mail.
In 3.5 I quickly uninstalled your themes and restarted, but I still have the “Foxdie for Firefox” menu item under the TOOLS menu. Selecting it gives me a flyout menu that is totally grayed out except for the Restart and the About Foxdie items.
I have 2 questions:
1) Is this the way your themes are supposed to work? (If so, how does the user navigate?)
2) How do I get rid of the “Foxdie for Firefox” menu item under the TOOLS menu?
HELP!!
(Thanks for any help in advance!)

Hey Joe,
What is wrong with the Blue theme? It cannot be installed on Firefox 3.5.3. It says is not compatible. The Graphite theme works fine though.
And by the way… what happened? The Foxdie themes dissappeared from mozilla addons site?
Thanks!

Hi Adi, I did it…
I disabled foxdie themes on Mozilla website, because the current version 3.1.9.2 causes a serious bug in FF3, I’ve just fixed it and optimized it for FF3, but need more time to make some changes to the Extension, once it’s finished(should be on Oct 23), I’ll upload it again and enable it.
Please wait for the 3193, it’s coming…
(Quote)
John – Thanks for telling me how to remove the Foxdie for Firefox” menu item under the TOOLS menu. I didn’t know there would be an entry under Extensions. Uninstalling it worked.
Unfortunately, I don’t see any “I’m fixing the bug for FF3 users…” entry but I don’t think I’ll tempt fate by installing the themes. Thanks for continuing supporting your work. Maybe I’ll check back later. Take care.

Hey,
One quick question (I really like this theme by the way, you did a great job with it)
Is there any way to make the tab bar appear with the “system style colors” as well? Like right now I’m running it on Windows7 and have a bluish system style color, the tabs are gray though. Any way to change that so that it matches the color of the menu/bookmarks toolbar?
Thanks!

Not necessarily a glass tab bar, only a tab bar that has the same colour as the other elements when you choose the system color settings.
Thanks for the reply.

Oh and not to be nit picking here, but a hower effect for the reload/home/bookmarks etc. buttons on the toolbar would also be nice.
The back/forward buttons have it, the others don’t.

(Quote)
The thing is I don’t really use the bookmarks button (to open the bookmarks in the sidebar) whereas I do use the compact menu to access other functions, plus I prefer the book icon to the apple one, so yes to answer your question I do want the book icon in place of the apple icon.
For me that would make your skin the best out there!

I’m kind of in agreement with ivawart. I use the Compact Menu 2 extension and don’t want it to use the Apple icon. Personally, I don’t really want the book icon either, though: I’d just prefer to have the standard Compact Menu 2 globe icon. Is there any way you get your theme to just use the existing icon? Compact Menu 2 actually has an option to use a custom icon, so if you just left it in charge, people could have whatever icon they wanted for the menu.
Thanks, it’s a great-looking theme!

Hi, just tried 3.1.9.3, it looks great.
I have to report the “Findbar” entry in Foxdie’s customization menu is grayed out me, do I need some extra extension or is it not implemented yet? (Firefox 3.5.4 on Snow Leo 10.6.1)
Also I would like to suggest an option to increase the height of the bookmarks toolbar, something like the Statusbar wider/widest setting but applying to to the bookmarks bar.
Another thing you may want to consider is implementing standard toolbar button icon sizes, what I mean is what you consider “large” or “small” icon sizes are completely different to standard sizes, this results in most third party toolbar icons (added by extensions like Stylish, Session Manager, etc.) having a mismatched size with the rest of the buttons, generally appearing smaller than the standard icons.

This is not working properly! Foxdie can not be removed properly – very annoying!

Hi John,
I use foxdie on my computer and LOVE IT but my girlfriend uninstalled it the proper way (add-ons, foxdie, uninstall) but the menu items are still there. I reinstalled firefox but this fix did not help either. Ideas for a fix?
Also is there a time frame for when foxdie 3.5 will be released? Everyone’s holding their breath.
(Quote)
Fixed it…
1. I reinstalled foxdie,
2. Selected; Tools, Add-ons, Themes,
3. Reselected “Default 3.5.5″
Suggestion:
It seems that only some people are having the problem of the foxdie theme remaining after the uninstall. Change the directions for uninstalling to include ‘reapply the default theme before uninstalling foxdie’.
Thanks John for all your hard work!!!
(Quote)
Hello- I’m new to the Foxdie world (I downloaded it about 20 minutes ago…). What I was looking for was the previews in a new tab, like Safari has. You know- when you click a new tab and it pulls up a screen shot of your most visited sites and you can click and go from there without typing it into the address bar. Is there something available through Foxdie? I’m thinkin I simply overlooked it.
Thank you!!
(Quote)
Hi
The “Findbar” is gray because one option of it will slow down my working on version 3.5
How tall do you want the bookmarks toolbar is? Or you mean you want it look like Safari4’s bookmarks toolbar with more padding-bottom?
The size of (Snow) Leopard style is hard to handle when there are so many extensions buttons, so my advice is that when you are using Leo1-3, please switch to small icons mode, then those extensions buttons won’t be resized much
(Quote)
Thank you Joshua, I don’t know why this happens to some people…
Foxdie 3.5 was designed to work with a plug-in in last year, but I changed the plan to make it as an extension this year. Because of too many styles in 3.5, I have to find a better way to make it easy enough for most users to use, I know I’ve said “it’s finished” before, but I changed it again and again, I’m sorry for this…
And now, The themes part is finished except for the colorful part, I think it needs a better way to config instead of the current extension in version 3.1.9, that’s why I delayed it. I told people “soon” because I do think it’s soon, but I’m afraid it takes more than what I thought.
I’ll release it when I finish the colorful part and a new foxdie.us site, I got 2 friends working on the site right now
Oh, It seems like Firefox 3.6 will come out next month, if it’s true, then I’ll upgrade Foxdie to 3.6 once I release 3.5

To remove the remnants of foxdie on Windows XP: after having uninstalled foxdie from Tools>Options>Extensions>Themes (or, in your sidebar), then go to My Computer>C: drive>Docs & Settings>Application Data>Mozilla>Firefox>Profiles>Extensions. Find the folder that says foxdie and delete it. All the leftovers will be gone when you start Firefox the next time. (Make sure you check the Folder Options box in order to view hidden folders).

Always loved your themes – cheers for all your efforts.
I have recently upgraded to your latest theme for Firefox3.5 and almost everything is perfect. The one problem I am having is that my bookmarks won’t show up in the top bar (above the tabs). They ARE all there – if I open the sidebar, but I can’t get them showing up in the top. This means that the compact menu icon is on the extreme RIGHT of the browser window and not on the left. I assume this is because it does not see any of the bookmarks in the top bar??
Let me know if you have any thoughts.
Have a brilliant 2010

It will give you the sub-themes and customization you had in Firefox 3.5.

OK well I gave it a shot, it’s width specific and not perfect but it kinda works.

Sorry, I am not exactly sure what you are trying to do…
Are you trying to get rid of that gray border around the window? You probably already know that your WindowsBlinds theme that is causing that, right? I doubt John can make Foxdie override WindowsBlinds, so I think the only way to get rid of it is to revert the default theme or use a different theme.

No actually I was asking for a way to change the background for the toolbar (under the URL bar) but I figured it out. If you look at the screenshot the background is now brushed metal as opposed to being just gray, to match the Windowblinds theme. Unfortunately it looks best with the night layout but that’s ok, the border doesn’t bother me.

Ah okay I see what you are saying now. Your theme is very unique so it will be difficult to find something the matches exactly. Hopefully when Foxdie 3.6 is released, it will work a little better for you.

i really like the whole details customization concept. but to be complete you should be able to customize the scroll bar.
i don’t have a mac, so the big blue bar on the left really messes with the final look of the browser. thats the reason why i never used mac themes on firefox.
are you planning to add a customization screen for the scroll bar too?
thanks, and congratulations on the great job.

Well it took me awhile and a few tries but I finally got it to match up perfectly. Here it is, the finished product:

BTW I am running this on an HP Mini 1000 Netbook with Windows XP and it looks really good on this little screen. The reason I chose this eamon63 Windowblinds theme is because it was the closest I could find to being an authentic looking Mac 10.4 Tiger theme. I like the brushed look and it seems pretty believable sitting next to my Mac iBook with the same Aqua theme.
After all that work, as small a detail as it was, I really do appreciate your dedication to the Foxdie world you have created here John. I love this theme even more now. THANK YOU!

Customizing the scrollbars will easily cause bug, that’s why I haven’t done it yet, but I will try when I am ready for it

Hi, I used to use this theme a lot ’cause it’s cool, way cooler than the others and I found out that whenever I open a new tab or even browse in the first/default/starter tab, the page sometimes starts to… VIBRATE… I am using the latest stable version of Firefox right now… 3.5 i suppose ’cause it updates all by itself… it shakes like hell, the page… as though there is a kind of special effect in the script but there isn’t because once I uninstalled your theme, it worked fine… now I got an ugly interface with which I couldn’t deal with because FF doesn’t let you customize the interface without an add on and I’ve installed it again… ‘CAUSE IT’S COOL!
Your theme is, like, elite but your FAQ does really suck… well, please solve the problem…
And, if the page starts to shake and I open a new tab and go back to that shaking page and close the new tab, it stops… was it on purpose or is it a bug?
